Got the 2008 SDR and Love it! Working on the "surging" now. It has FMF apex carbon slip ons. ? dont know if I have the Akra map or stock but will get TuneECU later to identify. Just got the O2 sensor eliminators and trying to install. Seems a little touch, do I need to take off fuel tank? How Do I take off the fuel tank? It's not warped but I"m concerned about putting it back on, as I heard it is hella hard to put back on. I have a lot of readings to do here. I love this site!

Hello from another newbie.

I've just bought a 2013 990 SDR and when I test rode the bike really noticed how snatchy it was low down - not really an issue but the dealer mentioned fitting the progressive RC8 throttle tube which he did and it's much much smoother low down now.

KTM Part Number: 69002021100 - Grip Set Open End Progressive (costs around £28 here so that's around $45)

Enjoy your new bike - I love mine!
